Actually today was a good productive day. The therapist gave Patty (after watching her get in and out of the Escape) the green light for a road trip. Sooo we drove 30 miles to get her her favorite chicken gizzards. They are so soft and tasty. Yum yum.

Then when I got home tonight I moved some furniture from each bedroom to the other so we will be ready when the articulating beds and our Tempur-Pedic mattresses get here. Wasn’t cheap, but her Dr, son, and the physical and occupational therapists said that’s what would be best for her.

She has lifetime restrictions of NO stooping down, no setting in chairs at less than a 90 degree angle and no bending over. So we bought her something called a hip kit from Amazon. It has grabbers, leg pulling strap, something to help her put her socks on and a 24 or 30 inch shoe horn. It’s gonna be an adjustment for us both but we can do it. She has graduated from a wheel chair to a walker (as long as she doedn’t go to far) and they even have her walking with just a cane if they (therapist) are with her.

So basically we are just waiting for our beds to get delivered and set up and she can come home. We figure (hopefully) next week or the one after.
